Viberg

[Chris]

I don't normally go for derby shoes, but those are really, really nice.

[Concret]

Nice shoes Rafa!

I've been after this make up long time ago, and since Viberg has stopped with their made to order service, it was almost impossible to get them. By a huge hit of luck I came across to someone selling that exactly configuration and I grab them in a heart beat.
Viberg 1950 Service Boot, MTO
-110 Last
-Black buffalo rough-out
-2021 Vibram wedge sole
-Leather laces
-Size 9
The 110 last is IMO the most comfortable last Viberg has in offer, is marked as a EEE width, but definitely is not that wide. I have tried the 2030, that seems to be the most popular Viberg last atm, but the narrow toe box doesn't work for me. The buffalo leather on this ones is just jaw dropping, and being a big rough-out fan, I have to say that i'm a happy man. I'm contemplating to wax them.

another detail shot of my new beauties

[Bluegrass]

Those are fantastic - love the derby shoe - I hope I can score a pair someday, it seems like you have to catch them at just the right time when the hit Viberg.com (and when you can afford them  :)) unless you know of another source/retailer.  They have a nice black pair on the site now, but not my size (matte black calf).

I picked up a pair of the derbies during the last sample sale as well. They're made from unicorn leather on the 1035 last. I wasn't sold on the derbies until visited the factory and saw the upcoming natural CXL derbies for SF. I picked up the guidi horsehide service boots and the leather is amazing, i'm looking forward to the derbies in the same leather.

[Concret]

Nice derbies, next summer maybe.

[pillowPANTS]

Mine today.

DiabolicaL….how is the 1035 last? How does it fit? What other last do you have from Viberg?

I'm typically a 8.5 with medium weight wool socks and these were a size 8 and they fit great with thinner dress socks. I find the 1035 to be quite similar to the 2030. I have 1035, 2030, Portland (Nigel Cabourn Apsley last) and 2045, I have a pair of boots on the 310 coming this week.
